Carbon measurements in two ultra-faint dwarf galaxies: Grus II and Tucana IV

Valentina Verdiani, Ása Skúladóttir, Romain Lucchesi +7

The ultra-faint dwarf galaxies (UFDs) are some of the oldest and most metal-poor environments in the Local Group. In particular, they are predicted to host the first stars (only H…

A 3D view of dwarf galaxies with Gaia and VLT/FLAMES II. The Sextans dwarf spheroidal

Eline Tolstoy, Giuseppina Battaglia, José María Arroyo-Polonio +7

The Sextans dwarf spheroidal galaxy has been challenging to study in a comprehensive way as it is highly extended on the sky, with an uncertain but large tidal radius of between 80…

From gas to stars: MUSEings on the internal evolution of IC 1613

S. Taibi, G. Battaglia, M. M. Roth +9

The kinematics and chemical composition of stellar populations of different ages provide crucial information about the evolution of a galaxy. We aim to provide such information for…

The intervelocity of galaxy pairs in CDM -- The observed velocity peak at ~130 km/s is not unique to MOND

Marcel S. Pawlowski, Kosuke Jamie Kanehisa, Salvatore Taibi +1

Observational studies of pairs of galaxies have uncovered that their differential line-of-sight velocities indicate the presence of a peak in their three-dimensional intervelocity…

Metallicity profiles of Ultra Diffuse Galaxies in NIHAO simulations

S. Cardona-Barrero, A. Di Cintio, G. Battaglia +2

Supernovae feedback driven expansion has proven to be a viable mechanism to explain the average properties of Ultra Diffuse Galaxies (UDGs) such as the sizes, colors, mass and inte…

The stellar metallicity gradients of Local Group dwarf galaxies

S. Taibi, G. Battaglia, R. Leaman +5

Through a homogeneous analysis of spectroscopic literature data of red giant stars, we determine the radial metallicity profiles of 30 dwarf galaxies in the Local Group. We explore…
